After our disastrous outing on Tuesday...when we couldn't see the Tall Ships for the rain....
........Look what sailed into The Tyne today!
The WESTERDAM
(Packed with 2000 passengers, mostly Yanks)
Now that's what I call a ship!

ReplyDeleteNice pics George,,pity those stubby "Dutch caps" (funnels) spoil the lines :(
ReplyDeleteHey George, I am pretty sure that was the Lady berthed at Cobh [formerly Queenstown - Co Cork - last port of call for Titanic in the day] about a week or so ago. If I can find the press coverage I will paste on here too ! What a beauty, I'd love a holiday on her ! Nice pics BTW ! x
ReplyDeleteWot a beauty George !! I know the tall ships are grand in there own way but this is so well designed as to be rather handsome. Tell me 'G' did they let those Yanks and their wallets off the ship or did the Toon elf & safty advise the passenger of the dangers of Northern hospitality.
ReplyDeletePhil I think funnels are there if you don't want smoking in all areas
Hope you liked the Vid of the Westerdam 'G' .You see I can download/upload stuff.
ReplyDeleteYou taught me well Captain and I always follow orders from as Master of his craft.
PS did you see me on there 'G' Just after the Police car siren ( After me) the time is 1 minute 41 seconds in and THERE'S ASBO. I was the one in the black and white stripy OLD GIT'S convicts shirt. LOL
Funny, could have swore it sailed past my window the day before ;-)
